Guidelines on How to Format a Paper for the PFG
PATRICK WESTFELD, Dresden & WOLFGANG KRESSE, Neubrandenburg
Keywords: guideline, manuscript, PFG journal, LaTeX, Microsoft Word
Summary: This sample document gives instructions for the preparation of manuscripts to PFG and outlines the format to be used by the authors. The paper has to begin with a brief and concise sum-mary.
Zusammenfassung: Richtlinien zur Formatierung eines Beitrags in der PFG. An abstract in German shall be provided.
1 Introduction
PFG – Photogrammetrie, Fernerkundung, Geoinformation is the journal of the German Society for Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geoinformation (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Photogrammetrie, Fernerkundung und Geoinformation e.V., DGPF).
PFG publishes Articles as well as News and Correspondence. The journal is listed in the Science Citation Index of Thomson Reuters’ Web of Science (formerly ISI Web of Knowledge). Articles are published mostly in English. Each article is subject to a blind review process, usually by three review -ers. Two types of articles are accepted for peer review:
“Research Articles” have to address new and innovative methods within the scientific scope of PFG.
“Articles of Science and Technology” address applications of interest or practical aspects. They do not need to present a new methodology, but the material presented must be timely and topical.
Manuscripts and other communication shall be sent to the editors:

Patrick Westfeld & Wolfgang Kresse, PFG Guidelines 2
All manuscripts submitted to PFG have to be formatted in accordance with these instructions. This sample document serves as a template for preparing your submission. A Microsoft Word file and a LaTeX version of this document can be found at http://www.dgpf.de/neu/pfg/guide-for-authors.htm.
Manuscripts shall not exceed ten pages, including abstracts, figures, tables and references (six pages for non DGPF-members). Those ten pages are published with no charge. The 11 th page and the fol-lowing cost 100 € per page. The number of authors is restricted to five. Please contact the editors for an exception.
All pages shall comply with the international standards of photogrammetry and remote sensing, e.g. defined in the basic standard DIN 18716:2012-08 “Photogrammetry and remote sensing – Terms and definitions” of the German Institute for Standardization (DIN).
A document submitted to PFG is typically structured as follows:
Title: short and concise First and last names as well as affiliation of the author(s) Three to five keywords Summary in English and German (Zusammenfassung) Main text: introduction stating the problem, accomplishments, results The conclusions section shall contain a brief summary Acknowledgements References
3 Paper Preparation
3.1 Format
The paper shall be submitted in a one column version. The two-column version is later prepared by the publisher. The complete page layout, e.g. text justification, line spacing or type and size of the fonts are specified explicitly by the PFG template document provided. The layout details shall be adapted with no change.
pfg_neumitLogoPDF.cls is the document class for formatting LaTeX submissions to the PFG journal. In Microsoft Word, PFG style templates are included in order to facilitate formatting layout elements like headings, captions, main text or references.
3.2 Figures
Line drawings, diagrams, images, maps, and sketches are labelled as figures. Each figure shall have a number and a caption. Figures are centred in the column of the body text. They shall be placed as close as practicable to their reference in the text. The maximum printing width of a single column figure is 62 mm. For a two column figure, a maximum width of 130 mm applies (Fig. 1; graphical material taken from WESTFELD & MAAS 2013). The minimum resolution for guaranteeing a proper quality of the hard copy reproduction of your paper is 300 dpi for images and 1000 dpi for line drawings. Characters in drawings shall not be smaller than 1 mm. Colour will be available in both the print and the electronic version of PFG. Colour figures that appear in the print version of the journal are published with no extra charge.

3.3 Tables
Data and results of measurements are presented in tables (Tab. 1; data taken from REHAK et al. 2014). Table position and alignment correspond to the specifications given in section 3.2. One exception is the caption which is placed above the table. Units are set in round brackets, e.g. (m).

3.4 Equations
Equations and mathematical symbols in the block text have to be provided in the format of the built-in Microsoft Office equation editor or MathType if Microsoft Word is used for preparing the text. Equations are numbered consecutively throughout the paper beginning with 1. The number is en-closed in round brackets and indented to the right. Equations are referenced simply by their number in round brackets, e.g. (1). Use the math mode in LaTeX for writing inline math formulas and displayed equations.
The 3D Helmert transformation is defined by seven parameters: a translation vector X0 with three components of X0(X0,Y0,Z0), three rotation angles ω, φ, κ giving the orthogonal rotation matrix R and one scaling factor m:
X = X0 + m ∙R ∙x ' (1)
The following equation (2) projects an image point x'(x',y') to an object point X(X,Y,Z) using a central projection:

3.5 References
Names are written in small capitals. If the author’s name is a part of a sentence, it is quoted like ADAMS (1993). A reference to the article only is written like (ADAMS 1993). Two author names shall be linked like (ADAMS & BABINGTON 1994). In the case of more than two authors, the reference is formatted like (ADAMS et al. 1995).In LaTeX, use the bibliography environment to produce the list of references. In Microsoft Word, references shall be ordered alphabetically and chronologically. Journals: last name – comma – abbreviated first name – dot – comma – year – colon – title – dot – dash – journal (full title) – volume (bold) – issue in brackets – colon – page, dash, page – dot. Monograph: last name – comma – abbre-viated first name – dot - comma – year of publication – colon – title of monograph – dot – dash – edition – comma – number pages – comma – publisher – comma – place of publication – dot.
